Help Quick!! This land [of South America] is very pleasing, full of an infinite number of very tall trees which never lose their

leaves and throughout the year are fragrant with the sweetest aromas and yield an endless supply of fruits, many of which are good to taste and conducive to bodily health. The fields produce many herbs and flowers and most delicious and wholesome roots that I fancied myself near the Terrestrial Paradise. What shall we say of the multitude of birds and their plumes and colours and singing and their numbers and their beauty? I am unwilling to enlarge upon this description, because I doubt if I would be believed. . . . We saw so many . . . animals that I believe so many species could not have entered Noah’s ark. We saw many wild hogs, wild goats, stags and does, hares, and rabbits, but of domestic animals, not one.”

How are the Great Pyramids at Giza different from the pyramid of Djoser?
Maksim231197 [3]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The great pyramids of <em>Giza, </em>in Cairo, Egypt, are magnificent structures built with an angle of 52 grades, impossible to built in nowadays modern engineering. This is a fact that astonishes modern science. They were built as tombs for Pharaohs. These are the Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Kehfre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure. They had secret chambers, some already accessed by scientists, some not. Indeed, the Great Pyramid of Khufu is considered among the "7 wonders of the ancient world." Nobody knows exactly when a who built these magnificent pyramids, although there are many theories.

The pyramid of <em>Djoser</em> is a step pyramid is located in Saqqara, Egypt, built in 2700 BC as a burial to Pharaoh Djoser. It was a cut stone construction that in no way compares to any of the pyramids of Giza.
